Everyday, about 10 times a day for about 5 days I tried to buy one of the 3 trips advertised for around $80 (~50 purchases/day). I don't count among those several tickets sold at $80. Now, I can't anymore continue to attempt to buy one of them as I risk to be charged if .. if .. if it was available for that rare moment. I mean that I bought another flight.
I would like to buy that flight even for $20 more but it never have been advertise inside JetBlue.com. JetBlue often replied and said that those flights might not be available at the moment that I attempted to get them. To that I would bet that they just weren't available. So! I am talking of a fraudulent advertising. For the least, the message "not anymore available" should be seen before we select the "purchase" button. I am computer programmer and I can't imagine a so stupid sequence "of logic" ... still being there (see previous sentence).
I already booked all my 4 next flights this year from West Canada to N.Y.C., Las Vegas, Orlando and Maui. So! JetBlue don't appear on those tickets.
* Flights not really available *
Sept. 23: LAS to OAK: 6-95, 200-99, 6-91 (Orbitz: $91 (today))
